about

written on the shore of a lake in british columbia

lyrics

i see you in the water
as the sun it blinds my eyes
though i'm an oceans daughter
the lakes and streams
oh i don't mind

darling there's no need to fear
we're nothing but safe
we're nothing but safe here
even with the stingers
and wildbeast near
we're nothing but safe
we're nothing but safe here

chorus:
she rows to a new lake
and gets lost
gets lost again
in her old, in her old,
in her old ways
so she rows, she rows,
to a new place

the sun goes down
behind the blue ridge mountains
the lake a mirror of
everything above
swimmin in the ancient fountain
i feel nothing but love

why cant it stay like this?
the way it is
the way it is
cause the only the same
is that everything changes
that's the way it is
the way it is

chorus

are we gonna chop down our oceans?
drag nets across the forest floor?
when will we remember our notions?
when will we stop asking for more?
